MHS offers comprehensive sortation offering for distribution centers

By Lisa Eitel | April 24, 2019

As supply chains become increasingly complex and e-commerce driven, distribution centers need the right sortation technology to keep finely tuned processes moving and products flowing. Single-source provider of turnkey material-handling automation MHS now offers a broad lineup of sortation technologies designed to address the package variety, space constraints and throughput demands of operations large and small.

Recent acquisitions of VanRiet and OCM have bolstered the MHS sortation offering to include sliding shoe, tilt-tray, cross-belt, swivel wheel, vertical sorters and more. The company maintains control of all aspects of sortation projects in-house, from design, engineering and installation to controls, manufacturing and ongoing maintenance to provide expedited project timelines and high-quality systems that optimize product flow.

“The total package of integration expertise and industry experience is key to providing solutions that optimize product flow in the context of supporting systems and meet overall business goals,” says Rush Fullerton, senior V.P. of business development at MHS.

MHS leverages advanced scanning, 3D modeling and simulation to guide the design of greenfield and brownfield projects alike. This enables designs based on the most thorough information available, precision engineered for incident-free, on-time installation. For more information, visit mhsglobal.com.


Founded in 1999, MHS Global is a full-service provider of innovative material handling systems that solve the challenges of distribution and fulfillment operations. The material-handling integrator takes a comprehensive, customer-centric approach that includes custom engineering, design, manufacturing, and turnkey integration services. Its solutions leverage a broad range of controls and automated equipment, including but not limited to sorters, conveyors, and extendable loading and unloading systems.
